I don’t know, I’m just a sqwrl.

Off topic, but I think it’s funny that the cutoff for a more modern worldview ends at 50 now, because all the older millennials are well into their 40s now and we have to include them because they were a main driving force behind “occupy” movement 14 years ago.
10 years ago you saw “under 40” being thrown around. 😂
WTF did the furries do? Why are they involved in all this at all?
As someone who uses scissor lifts a lot, I wish the manufacturers standardized on one way. Some have you push the joystick forward to descend, others will raise the platform when doing the same. I’ve damn near smashed some things in the ceiling going the wrong way for a second.
This is the most boomer-y comment I’ve read in a while. I remember my parents saying shit like this about me and my NES.
The bassline outros in his TV show were funnier than the man himself.
I usually do it when we take over a customer’s access control system and we have half their doors on the new system and half in the old still and are migrating them over. I’m an electronic security tech, this is what I do for a living.
I use it at work to clone a customer’s proximity card when I work in their building so they don’t have to leave me theirs to get around. The one legitimate use I found.
I guess being able to trigger the customer service announcement without having to find a button in a store is nice.
Please tell me there’s a Shermanposting community on the fediverse.
I know exactly 0 people who are still watching over-the-air TV.
Say goodbye to human spaceflight for an entire generation. We made a huge mistake hitching everything onto this fucker’s stuff.
I’ve been waiting for us to leave LEO since I was a kid in the 80s and it now looks like I might be dying without ever having witnessed even a moon landing. I envy my parents.
Unless China or India or Russia pull something off. They’re all we have after this.
loose 90% of the games you play as well
It’s 2025, not 2007. This is a huge exaggeration. Maybe try it again sometime.
The article is about Altair BASIC. That one was actually homegrown.
Who asked for this? Did y’all ask for this? I don’t remember asking for this.
Looks around room in confusion

Jokes never translate well. Even between somewhat-related languages, like western European ones. Best to just not.
Actually, my distaste for Big Tech is nothing new. It’s been building for decades.
First, little stuff like the inkjet printer that you invited into your house that claims to need, “Just a little more cyan, bro. I’ll print your black and white page after I get my cyan. Come on, bro.”
That’s because it needs to print the tracking dots on every page: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Printer_tracking_dots
There was an idea I read about, sorta along the same crazy track, (might have been Popular Science or something like 25 years ago) where they came up with an idea for a jet that didn’t use traditional control surfaces like ailerons, but rather line the wings and fuselage in thousands of tiny flaps that would all be precisely computer controlled. It would be able to basically mold and shape the airstream around itself to make precise movements.
